F1 News: Ferrari Tease SF-23 Ahead Of Valentine's Day Release

The Ferrari F1 team are set to release the SF-23 tomorrow and have teased eagerly waiting fans ahead of the unveiling.

Taking to social media, the team shared that they had released exclusive sneak peek images of their 2023 contender to their app. The photos are of the SF-23 under a red cover ready to be unveiled.

Fans have been sharing their predictions for the car. One fan posted to Reddit:

Someone commented writing:

"Pointy nose is staying. Good."

Others were quick to point out that this could be last years car with the new livery, which is what most teams do to not give their full designs away too early. Spy shots of the RB19 indicate that Red Bull have adopted a similar nose design to the 2022 Ferrari to improve their front end downforce. So, it will be interesting to see if Ferrari are carrying on with the same design.

Some fans are yearning for the team to go for a completely new look, however, the only thing new team principal Frederic Vasseur has revealed about the SF-23 is that it will be red... shock. One fan predicted a white livery, whilst others seem to be manifesting a bright yellow livery:

"No way would they make the car the same colour as the shroud covering it, I'm betting we see a white Ferrari this year."

From the car releases we have seen so far, many teams are adopting more exposed carbon fibre into their livery designs in order to aid weight reduction. Another fan commented, sarcastically:

"They’ve cut the weight so much it can be supported by two stools! RB are done"

The Italian team will be revealing the 2023 livery on Tuesday 14 February at 12:25pm GMT / 11:25am CET.
